From My Studio: Exploring Helen Alice Johnson’s Creative Process
Each week, Helen Alice Johnson takes inspiration from the natural world that surrounds her in Alston, Cumbria. Her paintings reflect the landscapes, gardens, and changing seasons, offering viewers a glimpse into the beauty of nature. In this blog, Helen shares the moments that spark her creativity, from a walk in the countryside to the sight of a flower blooming in her garden.
Open Studio Spring Bank 24
As well as a painting finished and a weekend at the Landmark Arts Fair in Teddington, London, we have still managed to put on a great show for you at The Old Police Station, Alston as par of my Open Studio event Spring Bank holiday 2024. Check out the video blog for what I’ve been up to this week.
Cow Green Reservoir Work in Progress by Helen Alice Johnson
Thank you so much to all of you who managed to get to my Open Studio last weekend. It was a fantastic three days, where we met lots of interesting people, old friends as well as several new collectors, with lots of original art works sold, from my largest paintings right down to some of my smallest pieces. Not to mention cards and prints too. There really is something for everyone and my Open Studios.
Since then - I’ve had a great week in the studio - check out my video blog below and see my work in progress of Cow Green Reservoir.
Open Studio 24
I am opening the door to my Studio this Bank holiday weekend with the lounge converted into a small gallery and lots of original artwork for sale for every budget. From affordable art to large original oil paintings, there really is something for everyone this weekend and we'd love to see you here in Alston Cumbria. I will be here for the three days beginning my next painting as well as welcoming visitors.
Getting ready for Open Studios
It’s been another busy week this week! No painting done at all - apart from Ian painting the walls! BUT, the gallery space is beginning to look amazing and paintings are being displayed ready for next week’s Open Studio Art sale. It would be fabulous to see you here. In the meantime, check out this video to see how we are changing our lounge into an art gallery!
